DREDGING AND HYDROGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE U. S. FISH- 
ERIES STEAMER ALBATROSS DURING THE PHILIP- 
PINE EXPEDITION, 1 907-1 9 10, 


The Philippine cruise of the Albatross covered a greater period of 
time than any single expedition previously undertaken by that vessel. 
The ship left San Francisco October 16, 1907, and, sailing by way of 
the Hawaiian Islands, Midway, and Guam, arrived at Manila Novem- 
ber 28. The stop at Midway, occasioned by a requisition of the 
vessel to carry stores from Honolulu to the United States marines 
stationed on Midway, was made the opportunity to take a small 
collection of the reef fishes and shore fauna of that group of islands. 
The number of fishes was very small, owing to the inability to carry 
enough explosive to do effective work, only 10 pounds of dynamite 
being allowed for use here and at Guam. Small collections were 
similarly made at this latter place when the ship stopped there for 
coal. 

A two months’ delay in the arrival of the stores which had been 
shipped from New York direct to Manila limited the vessel’s activity 
for that period to the immediate vicinity of Manila. Thereafter the 
work was done by a series of short cruises made to the different parts 
of the Archipelago with Manila as a base for supplies and the deposit 
of collections. 

During the period between February 2 and June 9, 1908, cruises 
were made to the southward, the first along the southwest side of 
Mindanao, thence through the Sulu groups, extending as far as 
Sandakan, Borneo; the second through the central group, including 
Panay, Negros, Cebu, Leyte, Masbate, and Marinduque; the third 
about the east and southeast coasts of Mindanao. 

After the return to Manila from the last of these cruises it had 
become apparent that the Albatross required extensive repairs, and 
in August the ship left for Hongkong to have these made. Upon 
conclusion of this work in October Pratas Reef was visited and a 
number of soundings and trawl hauls were later made in the China 
Sea between that reef and the Batan Islands. Some work was done 
in the Batan and Babuyan islands and on the northern end of Luzon. 
Contemplated stops along the northwesterly coast of Luzon were 
prevented by bad weather which culminated in a typhoon.

During December, 1908, and January, 1909, a cruise through the 
Calamianes and the western and southern regions of Palawan was 
completed, touching on the return trip at Sandakan, Cagayan Sulu, 
and Iloilo. Late in January and early in February a number of cod 
trawl sets were made in the vicinity of Mariveles, but with indifferent 
success. The succeeding month was spent along the southern coasts 
of Luzon and adjacent islands, continuing thence southerly along the 
small islands to Bohol, thence westerly by the Cagayanes to the east 
coast of Palawan and northward into the Cuyos, returning to Manila 
early in April. 

After a short trip to Lingayen Gulf early in May, the ship cruised 
along the small islands north of Samar and on the southeast coast of 
Luzon as far as Maculabo Island above San Miguel Bay, returning to 
Manila late in June. The latter part of July and all of August and 
September were spent in cruising from the southern coast of Samar, 
along southeastern Leyte, thence along the northern coast of Mindanao 
as far as Dapitan, thence northerly to Cebu, where some time was 
lost in repairing the boilers. The latter part of the period was con- 
sumed in further work in the vicinity of Zamboanga and along the 
Sulu group as far as Borneo, touching at a few small islands adjacent 
to the Borneo coast. Early in November the ship undertook a sup- 
plementary trip through the Dutch East Indies, touching at Menado, 
Ternate, Amboina, and Macassar, as well as at many intermediate 
points. On this trip a number of trawl hauls were made, including 
some exploration of the waters of the gulfs of Tomini and Boni in 
Celebes. 

The homeward trip from Manila was begun January 21, 1910. 
Bad weather and other difficulties prevented the execution of orders 
to continue the work in the vicinity of Formosa and the Loo Choo 
Islands; at only two stops in Formosa were any collections made. 
After further repairs to the vessel in Japan, sail was set for the United 
States and San Francisco was reached May 4, 1910, after an absence 
of over two and one-half years. 

EXPLANATION OF TABLES. 

The last previous dredging station of the Albatross was no. 5095, 
the last hydrographic station was no. 4896, occupied during the 
northwestern Pacific cruise of 1906. (See Bureau of Fisheries Docu- 
ment 621.) Five hundred and seventy-seven dredging and 41 
hydrographic stations were occupied during the Philippine expe- 
dition, extending the series of dredging stations to no. 5622 and the 
hydrographic series to no. 4937. In the tables the series are distin- 
guished by the prefixed letters D and H, respectively. 


DREDGING AND HYDROGRAPHIC RECORDS.

Only those stations where the ship’s gear was used (i. e., with the 
ship as an instrument) to collect natural-history specimens have been 
designated in the records as dredging stations. At times specimens 
were taken with dip nets during the occupation of a hydrographic 
station, but on account of the irregularity of such collecting the station 
was not regarded as a collecting station. No numbers have been 
given to the numerous shore stations, nor to minor collections made 
with the ship at anchor. But numbers have been given in the 
dredging series to hauls of the large intermediate net when used in a 
tideway with the ship at anchor. 

Since the shore work constitutes such an important part of the total, 
the data regarding shore stations is shown in chronological order with 
the dredging stations, the locality, apparatus, etc., appearing in the 
appropriate columns. To economize time most of the reef collections 
of fishes were made with dynamite. The method was to locate the 
desirable fishes in the coral growth by means of a view glass (a glass- 
bottomed box) used from a boat. A small charge of dynamite with 
electrical connections was carefully lowered and discharged. Such 
fishes as floated were at once collected with a dip net, and the place 
marked by a buoy. As soon as the bottom had cleared it was searched 
and the dead fish gathered by diving or more usually by means of 
long-handled spears. 

The various kinds of apparatus used at each station are recorded 
in the tables in chronological order, each on a separate line, opposite 
the station number, or, in case of unnumbered stations, opposite the 
locality, in the column “Apparatus.” 

The “Position” of a station is that point occupied by the vessel, 
as determined by the navigator at the time of beginning the first 
operation at that station. The position of the subsequent opera- 
tions under the same station number corresponds in a general way 
to the line as indicated under “Drift.” The distance covered by 
all the operations of a station is usually, however, not greater than 
the negligible error of observation, except in stations near shore 
determined by bearings. 

In relation to the hydrographic information obtained, the degree 
of accuracy with which positions are located is of greater importance, 
and a description of the methods is necessary to the proper use 
of this information. A great part of the region traversed is still 
unsurveyed; and even where surveyed, parts are incorrectly or 
incompletely charted. Owing to press of work and lack of time, 
no opportunity was afforded to correct such errors, and the best 
available charts were therefore used as the basis of all determina- 
tions of position when in sight of land; in the column “Chart” is 
noted the number and edition of the chart used at each station.

TJ. S. FISHERIES STEAMER ALBATROSS. 


When in sight of land position was fixed by compass bearings, and 
from the position so obtained on the chart in use the latitude and 
longitude were pricked off and set down in the record as the position 
of the station. If these charts should hereafter be corrected in 
latitude and longitude, the positions assigned to the stations must be 
changed accordingly. 

In conformity with previous practice, an additional position, by 
true bearing and distance, of some prominent shore feature is given 
for each station when practicable. As viewed from the ship, the 
nearest and most prominent objects on shore from which the ship’s 
position was determined were often topographical features, incon- 
spicuous and unnamed on the chart, and impossible of identification 
by a brief written description. Therefore the bearings given in the 
tables were laid off from the plotted position on the chart to some 
object prominent on the chart, whether the object could actually be 
seen from the ship or not; though whenever convenient one of the 
two points taken for bearings by the navigator in determining the 
position is used in the table as the point of reference. The letters 
(S.), (N.), (W.), or (E.) indicate, respectively, the south, north, west, 
or east tangent of the point of reference after which they are placed; 
e. g., Verde Id. (E.) ^eastern tangent of Verde Island. 

All bearings are true unless otherwise indicated. 

The spelling of all geographic names in these tables is that found 
on the charts designated in the column “ Chart.” There is consider- 
able variation in this respect in the different issues of charts. 

“Time of day 1 ’ in the case of soundings indicates the time the 
plummet struck bottom; in the case of dredgings, the time at which 
the apparatus began to tow on the bottom; in the case of interme- 
diate nets, the time at which the nets started to tow at the depth 
indicated; in the case of surface hauls, the time at which they were 
lowered into the water and began to be towed or the current to pass 
through them. 

“Depth” (in fathoms) is the depth obtained by the sounding 
when a sounding was made. In cases where no sounding was made 
the depth is estimated from the chart, unless the station immediately 
follows another, in which case the depth obtained at the preceding 
station is given. In seine hauls the depths given are approximate, 
and represent the greatest depth of water through which the seine was 
hauled. 

“Temperatures.” The air temperatures are taken from the ship’s 
log for the hour nearest the hour entered in the time column; the 
same is true of the surface temperatures where the towing commenced 
near the hour mark, but in other cases the surface temperature was

taken at the time given. The bottom temperature was taken at the 
time of sounding. All readings by Fahrenheit thermometer. 

“Density.” The water density is in all cases reduced to 15° C. 
The density of bottom water was ascertained from a sample taken by 
the Sigsbee water bottle. Inability to secure an accurate working of 
this instrument led to the discontinuance of the trials. 

In the double column “Trial” is indicated the depth at which 
apparatus was worked, as well as the duration of operation. In the 
case of bottom apparatus this latter is the time during which it is 
supposed to be dragging on the bottom, up to the beginning of 
reeling in; for intermediate nets the time occupied in towing at the 
depth shown in the depth column is indicated by the first quantity, 
the time occupied in hoisting by the second; for surface nets the 
time indicated is the time actually towed at the surface. 

In the double column of “Drift” is shown approximately the gen- 
eral direction in which the gear was hauled as well as the distance. 
The state of the currents and of the wind, with the exigencies incident 
to the steering of the ship, make this more or less inaccurate. 

The apparatus used consisted of the usual beam trawls for all work 
on the bottom. All intermediate and surface work was done with a 
large tow net and small plankton or Kofoid nets, except an unsuc- 
cessful trial of a triangular shear-board net. 

Abbreviations and Symbols. 

12 / Ag 12-foot Agassiz beam trawl. The Agassiz type of beam trawl was 

used more and with better results than any other used during the 
cruise. The runners now in use stand 4 feet in height and the 
usual type of net carries a taut headline, making the full opening 
available. For deep-sea work where the possibility of upsetting 
the frame is great, a reversible net is used, with a running bolt- 
rope passing through the clips forward of the middle of the shoes. 
The use of this net is indicated by the abbreviation“rev.” 


25' Ag The same runners used in the 12-foot frame but spread by use of 

two light spars for beams to a 25-foot opening. Used successfully 
on smooth bottoms.
